Q&A: Location, location, location!

Q: My wife and I and our two children aged 3 and 5, have a modest townhouse in Anchorage, Alaska. We also have a very small condo on the big island of Hawaii. I'm interested in home swapping but am just concerned that people will be looking for something a bit fancier. Would people be interested in exchanging with us? - John K

A: Absolutely! Although there are plenty of luxurious offers, most members' homes are nice modest homes like yours. When considering
home swap offers, most people aren't looking for a luxury home but rather at the location: is it in a country or area they would like to visit? Are places of interest easily accessible from the home? Many members like to swap to homes that are very different from their own (e.g. a city to countryside swap). Both your townhouse in Anchorage and condo in Hawaii will seem very 'exotic' and therefore will appeal to many members. If you are fairly open yourself on exchange destinations, you should certainly find plenty of interest in your offers.
